Lead Pastor Averru Lenalle says the church scrapped plans for their weekly Serve Saturday to meet the needs of flood victims.

"We really want to touch lives where it really matters," Lenalle says. "A lot of families have truly been impacted in ways that they couldn't predict. A lot of people have been displaced and others are trying to make sense of it all."

A Cypress congregation works to rebuild after their historic church suffered devastating flood damage.

Teams of church members and Good Samaritans are working inside the church on Telge Road to remove saturated drywall and insulation. The devastated sanctuary of the church built in 1928 was relatively new, renovated less than two years ago.

"We're very proud to be part of this community," Willey said with tears in his eyes.

However, the damage is extensive. The doors are swollen and the carpets - though they stopped the water from rising - were ruined.
